Stones Events are happy to supply our clients with a choice of cocktails and ‘mocktails’ to accompany our high quality food service.

These refreshing drinks offer a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic mixtures which are easily adaptable to suit an event or a specific person. This is a lovely idea to incorporate into an event so that each guest can feel unique in their choice of beverage. We understand that guest’s tastes range between that old favourite Margarita with Tequila and Cointreau and the exotic Jamaican Breeze with some Sailor Jerry’s Rum.

Stones Events want to include all of you and that includes those who wish not to drink or who have been assigned the designated driver role! And that is why we introduce you to our ‘mocktails’. The Elderflower Breeze consists of pink grapefruit and cranberry juice mixed with elderflower or the English Garden may interest you with ginger beer and cloudy apple juice.

And our incredible mixtures don’t end there. We have a sizeable list for you to look over and we encourage you to find your new favourite drink!

To accompany our unique dining service, Stones Events are enthusiastic to offer our client base a substantial wine selection to quench that thirst. We are keen to inform our client base that we are implementing a greener method of providing wine to strengthen our planet whilst retaining our client’s happiness. This is due to using companies who offer locally sourced wines, a decrease in unnessacary packaging and a minimisation of negative effects on the environment.

If you would like a wine matching service, we are able to peruse the menu and decide which wine would complement the meal best. Or if you are enthusiastic about a fine wine event, we are more than happy to suggest the very best wine for you. Stones Events are here to help if you cannot choose between the flavourful Conto Vecchio Pinot Grigio with soft pear or the locally sourced Primrose Hill Rose with red berry flavours.

Stones Events is renowned for its exquisite selection of popular canapés; the meticulous attention paid to flavour, size and presentation ensure that the canapé cuisine provided to guests meets an impeccable standard of taste and aesthetic pleasure.

Some of our celebrated canapé trays include luxury dishes such as scallop ceviche with chorizo crisp and lime aioli, chocolate crackle bon-bon with hazelnut cream and soya poached chicken with caramelised cashews, crisped seaweed and chilli pickle.

Canapés are circulated amongst guests throughout the evening by our professional catering staff and are the perfect supplement to drinks and dining, adding a touch of sophistication to both private and corporate events.
